Outreach Activities
Mathematics is a living subject – as our outreach activities show: In the school portal, you will find many offers for students and teachers. The ix-quadrat hands-on mathematics exhibition is aimed at young and old and shows that mathematics can be "grasped". The news from the Department of Mathematics will show you where mathematics is alive.
School Portal
Students, teachers, parents and interested individuals can find information and opportunities to get to know mathematics as an interesting subject and field of study here.
Math Exhibition ix-quadrat
The ix-quadrat is a hands-on exhibition which aims to awaken interest in mathematics in general and makes mathematics literally tangible.

Random Matrices and their Impact on our Life
Mario Kieburg (Melbourne) Wednesday, 18.12.2024 16:00 - 17:00
Abstract:
Random matrices are amazing mathematical objects as they combine various mathematical fields, from linear algebra to probability, differential geometry, group theory, etc. Due to this richness, it is not surprising that they are versatile tools employed in Engineering, Physics, Statistics, and many more. Modern applications can be found in machine learning, quantum information, and wireless telecommunications. In my presentation, I will show you the basic concepts of random matrices, what kinds of objects are usually studied, and which important theorems have been proven. To the end I will turn to the relation of Harmonic Analysis and Random Matrix Theory and how it has helped to solve some contemporary problems.
Coffee will be provided before the lecture.
